FAQs for Bardsea
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Bath re-enamelling in Bardsea without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bardsea
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Bardsea
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What else we do in Bardsea
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Bardsea. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
